Today, we are excited to announce the public beta of SlideSource.com, the cloud-based PowerPoint slide/presentation management system that makes collaborative presentation creation fast and efficient.

SlideSource was developed by Research Presentations Strategies, a company that routinely works with large, geographically dispersed client teams to create presentations and large complex backup slide libraries on which millions, sometimes billions, of dollars are at stake. In other words, RPS created the ideal tool for their own use because they knew through long, hard won experience what the ideal tool needed to do. Now this tool is available to every presenter.

We invite you to join in the public beta by going to SlideSource.com and registering with this beta code: Slides21. We hope you enjoy putting SlideSource through its paces and we look forward to your feedback. Please feel free to share this announcement with anyone you know who may be interested.
